Xie Pu's face was ugly. He was shocked by the news that his daughter had brought.

He had only met the person sent by the Cao family yesterday, and he didn't mention anything about reconciliation at that time, which only reassured him. Although the man also told him not to talk nonsense and not to offend his relatives to death, but outside the words, there was still a promise that he would take care of the family for him, so that he would not have to worry about the safety of the elderly and the weak in the family.

The man even hinted that no matter what the final outcome of his lawsuit was, even if he was found guilty, Pingnan Bofu would have a way to get the queen and the crown prince to get out safely. Even if he may suffer a little in the process, the final result will definitely be good, and the Cao family will never forget his credit.

Xie Pu thought these words were ridiculous at the time. He didn't do anything wrong, he wouldn't be found guilty at all, where did the queen and the crown prince need to take action? Moreover, if he suffers a little sin, it means that he has a credit to the Cao family, then what does this credit mean? It can't be to protect Wang Angui, right?

Wang Angui is a corrupt official and a moth of the country, how can he need him Xie Pu, a scholar with a serious imperial examination background and a court official with a clean character, to protect him, even at the expense of his own name? It's ridiculous that the Cao family has such an idea! The brother of Mrs. Pingnanbo's sister-in-law, is it so noble? But isn't he Xie Pu Ping Nanbo's brother-in-law?!

Xie Pu categorically rejected the suggestion of the Cao family at that time. The man left with an ugly face, and Xie Pu didn't pay attention to it. Although he also thought that Mrs. Ping Nanbo would be annoyed and angry, but with the Cao family, Ping Nanbo would not kill his sister's family in order to please Mrs. Ping's maiden relatives, right?

As a result, his daughter told him today that the Cao family wanted to reconcile!

Ping Nanbo actually let his sister and her husband reconcile for the sake of his wife's in-laws!

Is he crazy? Or is it that after so many years of stupidity and greed, you have finally hopelessly become an idiot?!

Xie Pu gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Your aunt...... Is it willing?! He still couldn't believe that his wife would turn her face and be ruthless.

However, Shermulin's answer disappointed him: "Yes, very willingly, she looks very happy." ”

Xie Pu was dumbfounded.

Xie Mulin looked at his expression and continued to add fuel to the fire: "Not only that, long before Pingnan Bofu sent a carriage to pick up people, the adults of Dali Temple once summoned the old lady, Uncle Niang and my mother, as well as the eldest brother and Aunt Qin to interrogate separately. According to my mother, my aunt personally testified to the people of Dali Temple that my father was guilty and greedy for money from the river workers, and she also said that she had seen you correspond with a person named Li Changsheng, and mentioned the greed for money in the letter. ”

Xie Pu was stunned for a moment and frowned: "Li Changsheng? ”

Xie Mulin continued: "Later, when Aunt Wanqin was summoned, she denied her father's claim of corruption, and she also said a lot of good things for you. She also said that her aunt was deceived by Qian's mother and misunderstood her father, so she said those angry words, not to testify against her father. For this, the adults of Dali Temple detained Mother Qian, and as soon as the aunt returned to the south house, she slapped Aunt Qin angrily, and when she left yesterday, she didn't take her with her. ”

Xie Pu looked at his daughter in a daze, as if he didn't react.

Xie Huizhi reacted first: "Huh? Has my wife ever slapped Aunt Qin? But I saw that my wife was very kind to Aunt Qin yesterday, and said that she was afraid that Ping Nanbo would embarrass her, so it would be better for her to stay in our house. ”

Xie Pu hurriedly looked at his daughter.

Xie Mulin nodded: "There is such a thing." After Aunt Qin was beaten, she explained to her aunt that she said those words to protect her aunt. Because someone sent her a message before, pointing out that the people from Dali Temple had found an account book in our house, which recorded the silver that the uncle had taken from the Xie family over the years. Aunt Qin felt that with this account book, her father was expected to clear her name, so she passed the word to Mother Qian and asked her to report to her aunt. But Qian's mother didn't take it to heart, and concealed the matter, so that the aunt said something that should not be said to the adults in Dali Temple without knowing it. When my father is acquitted, my aunt will be very embarrassed. Aunt Qin took the money and her mother made her a shield, for the sake of her reputation. After hearing this, Aunt Qin knew that Aunt Qin was still very loyal, but Mother Qian was detained by Dali Temple, and Ping Nanbo and his wife would be angry, and it would be bad if Aunt Qin was angry, so Aunt Qin was allowed to stay in our house. ”

Xie Huizhi took a long breath: "I see." I don't know about these things. At that time, he was held in a separate room with his brothers, and did not witness Cao's conversation with Wanqin.

Xie Pu's face was even more ugly.

It's just an account book, and if you don't tell Cao, Cao said the wrong thing in front of the people in Dali Temple - the so-called wrong thing refers to the fact that she accused her husband of guilt, right? This also means that the Cao family had already intended to falsely accuse her husband in front of the people in Dali Temple, and Ping Nanbo and his wife were insiders. The Cao brothers and sisters had already agreed, and they had sent someone to reassure him before, but it was just a coax!

Because Wanqin knew that the existence of the account book would change the situation, which was not good for the Cao family, she temporarily changed her words, but she destroyed the Cao family's brothers and sisters and calculations, so she was slapped that time.

Xie Pu couldn't help but sneer a few times. In order to calm things down, he spent more than one million taels of silver in the past sixteen years, but he only fed a few white-eyed wolves!

Xie Mulin paid attention to his father's expression, and when he saw that he still knew that he was angry, he felt a little more relieved. As long as Xie Pu will not choose to retreat because he is afraid of the power of the Cao family.

She turned her head to look at Xiao Rui again, and when she saw Xiao Rui's thoughtful appearance, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl.

From the moment she realized the identity of this Second Young Master Xiao, she was thinking about taking advantage of the other party.

The complicated relationship between the Cao and Xiao families may be able to bring some help to Xie Pu - about the scandal of the Cao family, will the Xiao family really not be interested?

Xie Huizhi didn't know his second sister's calculations, and said to Xie Pu angrily: "Father! The Cao family is too much! Mrs. is not afraid of being affected by you, so she draws a line with you, she is clearly helping outsiders frame you! Don't go their way! ”

Xie Pu took a deep breath and tried to calm his tone: "Sister Zhen, where is your mother?" Why didn't you come? Is it that your second brother is seriously ill and she has to stay at home to take care of her? I have something to discuss with her, so when you go back, let her think about it. "He still needs to find a reliable person to discuss. The eldest son is not there, the second son is seriously ill, and his mother can't rely on him, so he has no other choice but Wen.

Xie Mulin replied: "My mother also came today, but Lu Youqing, who called Dali Temple outside the prison, asked to leave, saying that during the interrogation yesterday, some things were not asked clearly, and they would be made up again today." That's why my mother handed over the things to me and my third brother and brought them to you. She tried her best to stuff the baggage and bedding she had brought into the fence, but the gap in the fence was too narrow, so she removed the stuff.

Xie Pu took over the things with some tears and laughter, and said helplessly: "It's hard work." When you go out, tell your mother and let her come in. I have something very important to discuss with her. He accentuated the tone of his last sentence.

Xie Huizhi obediently agreed, but Xie Mulin said: "Before my mother came, there was one thing that no one else knew, including my mother, and my daughter had to tell my father. You may be angry after listening to it, but I hope you will try to stay as calm as possible and come up with a response. ”

Xie Pu turned around and moved the clothes and bedding to the wooden bed, and asked a little casually, "What's the matter?" ”

"I know why Uncle Niang wants to harm you, and I know even the reason why Pingnan Bofu wants to harm you." Xie Mulin met Xie Pu's stunned gaze and curled the corners of his mouth, "Uncle Niang is in a hurry to kill you so that she can remarry a General Fang Wenshan." Ping Nanbo is also eager to give up a prefect's brother-in-law and want a brother-in-law who is the commander of the forbidden army. Dad, have you heard of this childhood sweetheart of your uncle? ”
